Bendy wire to support your sculpture.
£0.69 ex. VAT
When making a sculpture, you create an armature as a frame upon which to put the clay. it allows for support, for instance a tail on an animal, or an arm on a statue. It is made of aluminium and is therefore bendy, although the thicker wires are less flexible.
Hot Clay tip: Use as thinner wire as you can get away with, then pad out with newspaper and string around the armature to almost the full dimension of the sculpture, before adding your clay. The newspaper will make it easier to remove the wire and it will allow shrinkage without cracking the clay.
